Synopsis

"Planetary Shifts: a poetic journey through our post-normal times" is a powerful collection of poems that captures humanity's pivotal moment of choice between ecological collapse and conscious transformation. Written during eight years of global upheaval (2016-2024), these verses map our journey through environmental crisis, consciousness evolution, sacred reconnection with Earth, and possibilities for regeneration.

From structured Ottava Rimas to Haiku, these poems confront our greatest planetary challenges while envisioning paths toward healing and renewal. They speak to both our fears and our hopes-from soil depletion and climate change to sustainable cities and spiritual awakening. This collection offers essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the necessary paradigm shifts to respond to our time of chaotic, complex, and contradictory change.

Drawing on Futures Studies, ecological wisdom and spiritual insight, "Planetary Shifts" reminds us that we are not separate from Earth but are Earth becoming conscious of itself. These poems suggest that our current crisis contains the seeds of transformation-if we have the courage to nurture them.
